3 Kernel Vs Shell Table

The kernel is the core component of an operating system that manages hardware and resources, operating in kernel mode and working behind the scenes. In contrast, the shell serves as a user interface that interprets commands, operates in user mode, and is directly used by users. The shell relies on the kernel, while the kernel functions independently of the shell.
